What Qt version are you using? I do not see this compiled against Qt 4.5.

See the preceding Qt bug, which now shows as fixed in 4.5.2. It should also be harmless.

It's happening for me on Qt 4.5.1 - MythTV profile build, linked with Qt debug libs. I've found that the error does not print if I compile MythTV as release build, linked with Qt release libs. (Does Qt supress these warnings when running release libs?)

Maybe it is a Qt bug... I guess I'll find out when 4.5.2 comes out.

Research indicates this is harmless/fixed in later Qt. I also don't see this here. If this results in undesirable behavior, please re-open and I will do my best to work around the Qt Bug.
